The storm

"How was Frankfurt?" Shao Yan asked when they were inside the elevator.

After pressing the button for Li Xiqing's office, Karl had both hands inside his dress pants pocket. He did not stand too far, and not too close either. He respected Shao Yan as his good sister anyway, and not as a stranger.

"Very good. The office runs well as usual. I got to know Axel Chen when I was there, and that was how I introduced him to AG International," he turned his head to face Shao Yan, "Ah that reminds me, I have to apologize to you."

"Because of that, Daniel and Martin are so occupied now. L Corporation just swallowed all of their time." He showed a very guilty look and smiled helplessly, "But rest assured, that is also the reason I am back in the country. I need to help them too."

Shao Yan returned his smile, "Don't worry, I am also busy myself. Let me tell you a secret," she lowered down her voice purposely, as if she was about to tell Karl a very guarded information.
